Our take

Cortex is tackling the challenges faced by engineering teams and SREWs working with microservices. Its software platform gives companies the visibility and control they need over their microservices and cloud infrastructure, making it easier to develop and manage the applications and services they build.

To meet the growing demand for more services, Cortex launched the Cortex Resource Catalog, expanding the platform's ability to manage more assets. With a rapidly growing customer base that includes companies like Dobe, Brex, Grammarly, Palo Alto Networks, and SoFi, Cortex is providing the flexibility these businesses need to create innovative new use cases.

Backed by funding from Tiger Global and Sequoia Capital, Cortex is set to enhance the platform further. With plans to improve features based on user feedback, build better tools to support new teams and developers, and expand its reach globally. These efforts position Cortex for continued growth and innovation in the evolving microservices and cloud infrastructure space.
